Designer biography:
The SAMOKISH brand began its journey as a cherished hobby of a young designer Kateryna Samokish in 2010. Being a student, the designer made her first jewelry pieces for herself from all available materials she had at home like plastic beads, etc. From the very beginning people found her jewelry works unique and very different to what they could buy at that time. Then first orders came and Kateryna began developing her hobby while she was still a student.
The idea to drastically change her life from law to art did not arise out of nowhere. In fact, the whole family of Kateryna Samokish are art representatives. Her grandfather Nikolai Samokish was a famous artist, whose pictures are kept in museums as well as private exclusive collections. Her grandmother – pianist, mother – actress and her father used to be a deputy head manager of L.Ukrainka, National Drama Theatre.
A few years ago Kateryna Samokish left her successful legal practice to pursue her passion and started creating unique jewelry pieces from distinct Italian chains, semi-precious stones and rhinestones. Today Samokish is already famous and well-established brand with a team of professionals, its own strategy, plans and ambitious goals.
Katerina Basovskaya, the granddaughter of the famous Ukrainian artist Nikolai Samokish, continues the family tradition and creates every jewelry product as a piece of art with great love and attention to every detail.
Collection concept:
The new collection immerses us in the exciting marine world. This year we wanted warmth and the sea so much that I decided to get these emotions through jewelry.
The main element is the golden sun, made in the author's style of molten metal. You will also meet a jellyfish and many colored stones similar to sea one.
The collection is full of warmth and juicy colors, what we so lack in our cloudy days. It is designed to cheer up and charge its owner with the energy of the sun.
